*** Official Colorado vs #8 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

[Lafester]

Looking like a very sparse crowd tonight

John Walter's made a comment that the students are noticeably not here.

The odds were only 50/50 it was a going to be a boy, unless he had a genetic condition where all of the “Y” sperm we’re non-viable, then the odds were zero unless the woman had relations with someone else. Historians have speculated that this is why King Henry VIII had only daughters from all of his wives except the last one.

Sorry the science geek in me refused to stay silent

Yes, that's correct. Many get tripped up on this by thinking the question is, "Let's have 8 kids. How likely is it that all 8 will be girls?" A: not very (1/256, in fact). But they already had seven girls, so 50/50 on the next being a girl (barring some genetic anomaly, as you noted).
We already beat CU twice! I'd say there's about a 95 pct chance we win again tonight.

It's every section but the student empty seats are concentrated since they pack forward

Its not the 80s and 90s. Students will show when their parents can drive them to the game.

It seems dumb that this game is scheduled. It seems the Big 12 would know that both teams were going to Maui when making the schedule. There's only 5 teams you play twice, why not play it safe and not put CU/ISU as a 2x matchup.

Maybe we play them a 4th time at the Big 12 tourney.

Pleeeease let the ESPN+ steam not suck this time

I might add here, that not all the negatives should go to espn+, of late. I'm coming to the realization that Hulu is just not good either.

Since espn+ is on Hulu, that's got to be some of the perceived problem?

I actually don’t blame anyone for not going in this weather. It’s so good. I would be if we were playing Kansas or Houston. However, it’s Colorado. No way I would walk a long way for this game in this weather

I'd bet my house they say something about the cold outside in the first 30 seconds

I think the under hit on this somehow

 

[awd4cy]

Lower level seats open in the student section. Crazy for a top 10 team. Times have changed I guess.

Feed already sucks

I don't know. Streaming directly on the ESPN app on my Xbox, and it's been great, except for the Cincinnati game.

 

[ianoconnor]

How on earth did the shot clock reset there?

 

[CyGuy5]

This isn’t a complaint, rather an observation, but I feel like we never win the opening tip lol

 

[GoSTATE71]

That Lipsey hustle

 

[jspeels]

Soft foul call number one!
